MUSEUM OF ANCIENT LIFE Open to the public in June of 2000. The defining characteristic of the Museum of Ancient Life is found in its hands-on approach to exhibits. Guests are invited to touch actual fossils and feel real dinosaur bones and eggs, as well as other displays. Exhibit halls are designed to immerse guests in the subject matter, using expansive murals, soundtracks, plants, and gurgling streams. There are 50 interactive hands-on displays within the exhibit halls. With 60 complete skeletal displays, the Museum of Ancient Life is one of the world’s largest dinosaur exhibits. The main lobby features “Ruth the Gorgosauras,” an amazing specimen discovered and donated by citizen scientists. The Junior Paleo Lab offers guests a chance to do the work of a paleontologist, drilling actual fossils and making casts of bones to take home. A working paleontology lab is located within the Museum and can be observed by guests as they tour the exhibit halls. The Museum of Ancient Life is home to the Mammoth-Screen 3D Theatre featuring National Geographic films on a 6-story, largeformat movie screen. The Traveling Exhibit gallery is adjacent to the main gallery and highlights a variety of interactive STEM exhibits changing throughout the year.
